The Indigenous Preservation Society of Hiroshima, a traditional taiko music group founded by Itsuki Munakata, will accompany the posters adding a unique, artistic and historic perspective to the exhibit.
Mr.Munakata is a survivor (Hibakushya) of the Atomic bomb - he was just 5 years old at the time. Mr. Munakata will bring 3 members of his taiko troupe from Japan to share stories, art, traditional taiko music and Hiroshima tunes with the people of Arizona.
There will be many highlights along the way, including a unique collaboration with Native American and Arizona artists near the Grand Canyon.
It is important to note that Mr. Munakata is a well known Shinto Priest and NOH artist, recognized across Japan.@
